Yikes! A colleague of mine used to do testing for InfoWorld magazine 
back in the 80's. He managed the test lab. Back before Dell was Dell 
(PC's Limited) they sent in a 286 for testing. It (or, more 
specifically, the little front panel display) caught fire.

Another of my favorite stories from Steve is the 286 marked as 12mhz 
that Zeos sent in that had been overclocked to 20mhz (but wasn't marked 
that way). Nice Huh?
